You have people crying that Storm's actress is not black enough yet they will cry racism if you point out Annabeth Chase, Clarisse La Rue, Hermione Granger, and more are in fact not black at all in their source materials.

I love how even diehard Percy Jackson fans will admit at this point that Rick Riordan is not a good author. He somehow speedrun the J.K. Rowling arc.

people just like making themselves angry. it doesn't even have to be some argument/flame war, it can be entirely in their own heads.

>IMAGINE IF DISNEY MADE A LIVE-ACTION CINDERELLA...BUT MADE ALL THE ACTRESSES BLACK! THERE'D BE RIOTS IN THE STREETS!!!

oh wait, that happened, nobody gave a shit.

I'll never stop being angry over what they did to Annabeth, same way I'll never stop being angry for blood of olympus existing in the way it does after house of hades

the sovereign decides the exception. Black are allowed to be racist because jews say so and the majority of white accept it.

>>222785953
Because Percy harpes on and on and on about her looks over and over and over. Storm grey eyes. Blonde hair. California girl look.

I noticed this mental illness a long time ago when Asian Americans were seething over Light in Death Note being played by a Jew but had nothing to say about L being played by a black man. Sometimes I wonder if they were aware that Light's a villain.

black "people" are in fact, uppity. I guess our racist ancestors were right.

That's being nice. They're dogshit. Even Jeet Ghandi hated them.

I'm still pissed off they made Rue look nothing like Prim.
That was a critically important part of the book, and they ruined it for diversity shit.

i mean tbfair Harvey Dent was a nothingburger in that film, but so was Commissioner Gordon (for some reason? it's not like he wasn't important in the 60s TV show.)

but yeah it can be done. Professor Snape? no, i doubt that guy will work out.
this will sound insane: i could see a black Lex Luthor. you know that Johnson fella from Peep Show? like a suave businessman type, or like Gus from Breaking Bad. the 90s Superman cartoon gave him a delicious chocolatey voice anyway.

>>222791575
A White man voiced Lex in the DCAU

>>222791575
If we're talking black businessmen I quite liked the villian from Wonka

same guy who voiced the agent in Jackie Chan Adventures, right?

white, black, idgaf. i always imagined Lex as either high pitched and nebbish sounding, or suave in a more JFK type way.

whatshisface convinced me someone like Tay Zonday could voice Lex.
